Philips has done really well with its liquid-crystal display televisions, which are good quality but priced more competitively than those from rivals such as Sharp and Samsung.
This week, it is introducing two new High Definition LCD TVs - one a 15-inch and the other a 17-inch - both of which can double-up as computer monitors.
Being HD TV-ready means little in Hong Kong as we do not have the service and may never get it.
However, this should not detract from the appeal of Philips' new 150MT20P and 170MTP20P, which would work really well as a bedroom TV set and computer display.
These LCD TVs have a number of video input options - HDTV, DVD component video, S-Video, TV antenna, CVBS Video and D-sub for PC.
